Ingredients
10 g active dry yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
5 cups cake flour
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1/3 cup butter/margarine
method
Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water, and let stand for 5 minutes, or until foamy.
In a large bowl, mix together the yeast mixture, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, butter, and 2 cups of the flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed, or stirring with a wooden spoon. Beat in remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl.
Knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough into a greased bowl, and cover. Set in a warm place to rise until double.
Dough is ready if you touch it, and the indention remains.Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and gently roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.
Cut with a floured doughnut cutter. Let doughnuts sit out to rise again until double. Cover loosely with a cloth.
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large heavy skillet to 175 degrees C.
Slide doughnuts into the hot oil using a wide spatula. Turn doughnuts over as they rise to the surface.
Fry doughnuts on each side until golden brown. Remove from hot oil, to drain on a wire rack.
